I have had my '95 coupe for over 4 years now and know her pretty well. At some time over the past few months, she has started running 10-15 degrees hotter than usual. I can't say how long that change took, but I usually run with the Cool digital display on, and it used to be around 184, and now...

The loop on my key fob where the keyring attaches broke. I tried to glue it back on, but it doesn't hold forever. So I need a fob CASE for a '95 - I guess the best thing would be if I could find somebody with a non-working fob that I could just get the case off cheap. Any ideas? Thanks...

In over 2 years, this is my 95's the first real "age" problem. I was driving in the rain recently (yes, it happens) with, of course, the headlights on. I signaled a left turn, and the turn indicator on the dash stayed on solid but lower intensity. If I turned off the lights, the turn signal...

This isn't really a Corvette question, but I would appreciate the advice of all my friends here. When I bought my Vette, there was a stain on the carpet under the driver's seat like coffee or chocolate milk. I cleaned it off as best I could, and then forgot about it as it was not normally seen...

This is really two comments, although related. I was out today waxing both the Vette and my DD, which is a '98 F-150 pickup. I use Zaino on the Vette and she looks great. But I do drive her a lot on trips - usually about 4 hours to see either of my daughters. Since I last worked on her, I do...

There was a slow clutch fluid leak when I bought my Vette from the previous owner, but I had both the master and slave replaced about a year ago, and all has been well since, but... Here I am about 4 hours from home. I took her out this morning, and the cluth pedal was almost to the floor. I...

Even though I am retired, I still work a bit consulting, and unfortunately I had to work all day Friday. Which didn't leave me any time to spruce up the Vette for the local Cruisers car show here in our little town of Southport NC, so I didn't enter. But my wife and I went to look, and there...

What are these three (relays, I assume) just behind the driver's headlight and mounted on the radiator shroud? The reason I ask is that the upper (black) one came loose and snarled my headlight. No damage (I hope the bushings weren't hurt), but they seem very loosely mounted. Just a plastic...

Hi guys - need some advice. I need new wheels. The stock wheels for a '95 LT1 coupe are 17" 8.5 front and 9.5 rear - if this is NOT correct, please let me know. Anyhow, it seems hard to find a set in those sizes. Many I see (OE, AFS, etc.) are 9.5 both front and rear. How important is it to...

I need to plan my spring cleaning. How long does it take to claybar the entire car - would I have enough time in a day to do that and at least 2 coats of Zaino? Thanks, Bob

I broke down today (me, not my Vette!) and went to the Vette store and looked at new C6's. They only had verts in stock, but I need a coupe for the travel luggage space. I didn't drive one yet as they were all in the showroom and a bit difficult to get out at the spur of the moment. Looked...

OK. Laugh at me if you want. I have had my Vette for almost two years now, but just noticed this. Maybe it just started happening, maybe it's associated with our colder weather right now. Anyhow... When I first start the car, I hear 5 "bong" or chime sounds. There are no lights or indicators...

OK guys, I need your help. I had a thread here last November about my chrome sawblades and how they were starting to pit a bit. I live on an island off the NC coast, so salt air is an issue, and being in a beach house there is no garage. Well, I can't believe how quickly the wheels went...

My '95 (bought 1.5 years ago) came with nice chrome sawblades. I liked 'em a lot, but my wife liked 'em even more - helped make the buy! But, they have started to get "rough". You know what that means! I guess having that type of wheel at a NC coast island home and exposed to the salt air isn't...

I am doing my first K&N air filter cleaning. I have it cleaned, and drying now. Have a spraying question: Which side do you spray the oil on - in or out? The cleaner bottle or oil can doesn't say. And, yes, I know to spray sparingly! Thanks, Bob

I have had my Vette for about 13 months now. Some things I did right away, some things had to wait a bit. Based on the great advice I get here, I had her in the shop today to have the radiator pulled, flushed, and cleaned - and the ZF tranny oil replaced. I got the tranny oil at the local BMW...

North Carolina has emissions testing, but only on a county-by-county basis. When I was in Raleigh it was mandatory (pre-Vette), but when I moved to the beach they didn't. Well, they announced recently that my county would start, and I thought of all those California posts you read about...

I have always been bugged by the water that accumulates at the bottom of the coupe hatch after washing. I would always work out as much water as I could by running my finger down along the rubber, then use a towel to wring out the rest. Better solution: since I service PCs, I have a lot of...

If you read about Hurricane Ophelia, you probably read about Oak Island, where I live. We got over a foot of rain yesterday, with some fairly heavy winds. I live in a beach-style house, on pilings. I am not right on the beach, so salt water is not a direct problem. But I don't have a garage...

Planning to go to the local BMW shop to buy the 10/60 oil for my '95 6 speed. Just to check, I have read that the capacity is 2.2 quarts. Seems low - is that correct - 3 quarts be enough? Thanks, Bob
